I just got mine from musclerodz.com yesterday and had a chance to put them in today. They are definately much brighter than the old 1157s. I always worry about morons rear ending me on the freeway in the nightly commute. Hopefully this will make the large, bright orange truck a little more noticable in traffic.
 
I wonder how those compare to the ECE LED's? ECE is $199 though so you got off much cheaper.

Are they easy swap/replacements? That's going to be the ticket for me.


BTW, the best way to deal with rearend problems is a third taillight :D .
 
The ones I posted are ECE (Early Classic Enterprises). I heard they are pretty bright.
 
Super easy swap. The pig tail plugs into the socket. You do need to put a fat screw driver or a coin into a slot in the back of the plug to get it to turn into the socket, but I think it took about 5 minutes.

My understanding is that the ECE ones had some problems. These are actually sealed to the custom lens rather than being sandwiched between the housing the the lens.

IGOR - I was born and raised in LA. My parents moved us to Coos Bay to open the store right before I started High School. I'm a "born again" Northwesterner (but I still don't like rain drops on my balding head).

Yeah, but I'm not going to cut up my pristine rig for a 3rd tail light.

No pics yet. Been too busy and too lazy to go out and take pictures.

Me too, I can't keep a set on the shelf long enough to get a set mounted into a truck.:haha:

Cool how do they look in the daylight? and these are the 20 LED ones from MuscleRodz.com right? The truck I just bought has clear lenses and red bulbs and there not very bright so Iwas thinking of getting these to replace them with.

Yes they are from us and no one has posted daytime pics yet that I know of.
